Hello, @scott-sumner and All,

Scott, I investigated this “pseudo” bug and here are my ( non exhaustive ) conclusions !

For an easy reading, click on the ¶ button, of the Tools bar, to visualize all the hidden characters

First, these weird results exist from a very long time ( Probably from adding the Extented search mode ? ) I was able to reproduce it, with the old v5.9.8 version !

Case A : IF you select any text, WITHOUT including any following End of line character(s) ( No CR nor LF chars ), any immediate search, in NORMAL search mode, clicking on the Find All in Current document OR on the Find All in All Opened Documents, work normally ! No problem :-))

Case B : IF you select any text, INCLUDING its End of Line character(s), any immediate search, in NORMAL search mode, clicking on the Find All in Current document OR on the Find All in All Opened Documents, does NOT work properly, if the search includes any of the literal following characters, below, and produces NO result :-((

\t \n \r \0 \\

Case C : IF you select any text, INCLUDING its End of Line character(s), which contains escaped characters, except for the five above, any immediate search, in NORMAL search mode, clicking on the Find All in Current document OR on the Find All in All Opened Documents, DOES find result(s), if any !

However, note that a bad side-effect of Case B OR Case C searches, is that the search mode is, wrongly, changed from Normal to Extended

So, if you, really, need to search for text, containing any of the five literal forms, below, and ending by its End of Line characters :

\t \n \r \0 \\

Just follow the few steps, below :

Open the Find dialog ( Ctrl + F )

Type the corresponding regexes, below, in the Find what: box

\\t\R \\n\R \\r\R \\0\R \\\\\R OR \\{2}\R

Check the Regular expression search mode

Click on the Find All in Current document OR on the Find All in All Opened Documents button

You may, as well :

Select, first, the text, including its End of Line characters

Open the Find dialog ( Ctrl + F )

In the Find what: field, simply escape, with an other \, inserted before, each anti-slash character ( \ )

Check the Regular expression search mode

Click on the Find All in Current document OR on the Find All in All Opened Documents button

Best Regards,

Because i think the intent is to show a new line not \r in the dialog.
I think it will be best to write it the correct way in the source language/english so that all translators can see the correct way to do it.

Hello, @alessio-spleen-castello,

Ah, yes ! You need to type in the initial number, in a decimal form, although counting will be, correctly, generated, with hexadecimal numbers !

For instance, if your numbers sequence have to begin with the hex number 1CE, you must write the decimal form of 1CE, that is to say the number 462, as the Initial number field of the Column / Multi selection Editor

Then, choose the Hex format and, possibly, check , or not, the Leading zeros option and click on the OK button !

Cheers,

guy038

P.S. : Hexadecimal number 1CE = 1 * 16^2 + 12 * 16^1 + 14 * 16^0 = 256 + 192 + 14 = 462

Claudia - Thank you very much!

I thought the bug was in Notepad++ and you pointed me in the eye that the problem is in Firefox installation - reinstallation solved the problem.

Regards.

@ganesh-T this is a test reply !

Hello claudia
thanks for your answer, its very strange, perhaps its just a problem with my mouse (certainly) coz today i havent this problem.

@los-amigos

looks like it is hard coded.

case WM_CONTEXTMENU : { if (HWND(wParam) == _scintView.getHSelf()) { POINT p; ::GetCursorPos(&p); ContextMenu scintillaContextmenu; vector<MenuItemUnit> tmp; tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(NPPM_INTERNAL_FINDINFINDERDLG, TEXT("Find in this finder..."))); if (_canBeVolatiled) tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(NPPM_INTERNAL_REMOVEFINDER, TEXT("Close this finder"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(0, TEXT("Separator"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(NPPM_INTERNAL_SCINTILLAFINFERCOLLAPSE, TEXT("Collapse all"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(NPPM_INTERNAL_SCINTILLAFINFERUNCOLLAPSE, TEXT("Uncollapse all"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(0, TEXT("Separator"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(NPPM_INTERNAL_SCINTILLAFINFERCOPY, TEXT("Copy"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(NPPM_INTERNAL_SCINTILLAFINFERSELECTALL, TEXT("Select all"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(NPPM_INTERNAL_SCINTILLAFINFERCLEARALL, TEXT("Clear all"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(0, TEXT("Separator"))); tmp.push_back(MenuItemUnit(NPPM_INTERNAL_SCINTILLAFINFEROPENALL, TEXT("Open all"))); scintillaContextmenu.create(_hSelf, tmp); scintillaContextmenu.display(p); return TRUE; } return ::DefWindowProc(_hSelf, message, wParam, lParam); }

Maybe you wanna open an issue here if it hasn’t been already addressed.

Cheers
Claudia
